Non-baseball: More from the 'Swift Vets'

This just keeps getting uglier and uglier.

The 'Swift Boat Veterans for Truth' have a new ad coming out, in which they blast Kerry for his claims that US soldiers (his unit specifically) regularly committed war atrocities.
"John Kerry gave the enemy for free what I and many of my comrades in the North Vietnamese prison camps took torture to avoid saying."
I have heard about one atrocity committed by Kerry's unit, but I doubt that Kerry would want that one to get to the media...

And now the Kerry campaign is calling for the publisher of Unfit For Command- the Swift Boat veterans take on Kerry's Viet Nam service- to pull it from shelves. (via LGF) Would a book burning be to your liking Mr. Kerry?

Where was the outrage when Michael Moore was spreading his filth? Oh wait, I forgot- freedom of speech only applies to the Democratic Party.
